Trouble with repeat geometry

KristenM19 — Wed, 05 Nov 2025 22:49:23 GMT

Hello, I am trying to create a survey that collects two geoshapes that populate as two separate polygon layers. I have the second geoshape (presence record) in a repeat but when I look at the data in ArcGIS Pro, the data is in a an attribute table rather than a layer. Is it not possible to achieve what I'm after? If it is, what am I missing? XLS form attached.

I think it's your "bind::esri:fieldType" value for the polygon inside the repeat, it's set to null. This means the polygon is being ignored when creating the service, making the repeat a table.

Thank you, removing "null" worked! That must have carried over from whichever survey I used as a template to start making this one. It was driving me crazy, I really appreciate it.
